I have the following simple script
tell application "Finder"
activate
select file "00001458.png" of folder "Images"
open selection
end tell
I would like to add to this script that the file "00001458.png" be opened
by PictureViewer instead of the Application that created it.
How would I do this.
REASON:
I have 2000 images (all png files) in an Images folder. I have created a
FileMaker Pro database that will display the images, but right now, they
display in GraphicConverter, and I want them to open in PictureViewer
(since not everybody has a copy of GraphicConverter, but they do have a
copy of PictureViewer).
The only way I could do this in FileMaker is by an AppleScript (AppleEvent
wouldn't work).
So, now I need to know how to target a specific application to use to open
these documents.
thanks,
If any replies could be sent to email@hidden that would be
appreciated.
